NRG Grids

NRG - Nephilim Reversal Grids

The headquarter hub in Stonehenge area acts as a final collection point by directing huge amounts of Electromagnetic power, through massive amounts of collected (stolen) life force from multiple subsidiaries all over the planetary globe and the planetary grid lines, as well as the Planetary Gates.

The Archontic Deception Strategy is directly to inflict Sexual Misery, sexual abuse and sexual slaves on this planet, starting as early and young as possible. This was taken advantage of by the negative aliens to splinter the soul energies, rather than integrate and heal it, by controlling the sexual energies. By promoting distortions around the sexual act, gender roles and corrupting our relationship to our mother and father parent, our race descended into Sexual Misery and in many cases, forms of sexual slavery and Misogyny. This is known as the “sexual misery program” propagated and controlled by the Moon Chain (lunar) lineages of the NAA on the earth. (These are lineages not indigenous to the earth but came through the process of invasion and deception.) These are multiple layers of architecture and Mind Control that have been artificially created to control, deceive, separate, confuse, torture and steal human beings sexual life force, and it is a violation against the human soul. The main collection center for Sexual Misery is called the NRG network that is the central hub in the UK. It is designed to create psychopaths and sexual predators based on Archontic Deception Behavior.

Known subsidiary networks exist at every Planet Stargate, such as Iran Gate, Michael Mary Reversal in Calgary, The Cathar Grid lines (S. France), Dragon Moth/Snake Networks in Asia. All are collected and returned to UK for distribution off planet for the Orion Group and Annunaki Nibiru groups to parcel out.

DNA Splitting or Pair Bond Splitting

The Nephilim Reversal Grid (NRG) is an alien AI machined structure that is active in the United Kingdom. In order to dismantle the NRG, the various hubs feeding it from all over the planet need to be dismantled systematically, while freeing the soul enslavement of the collective consciousness of the earth humans that is used to power up these grids. This dismantling and grid rehabilitation has been transpiring with the Guardian teams since my awareness of this project in 2008.

The NRG is responsible to break apart hybridized genetics by reversing any synthesis of alchemy that happens organically between the male and female principle (electron-proton balance), as well as repelling any healing for the DNA of reverse pair bonds that are connected to Nephilim DNA or that which has been hybridized with reptilian genetics. This is desired by the Reptilians because their human representatives on the earth have been bred as Nephilim (genetic hybrid between Oraphim and Reptilian) and thus are easy to possess and Mind Control for carrying out the negative alien agenda NAA.

The Reptilians Negative Aliens do not want to heal their genetics, thereby integrate into human society as an equal, they want to rule humanity as an absolute authority as the False King of Tyranny. The Illuminati plan and the infiltrated monarchy are based within these genetically controlled factions, that are considered the royal bloodlines. Many of these royals are not human any longer, but have been partially or fully possessed by the interdimensional entities in order to make the carrying out of the agenda more convenient. The NRG is a massively complicated alien machinery that has interfered with true spiritual marriage or Hieros Gamos, the union between the inner male-female principles in the original human DNA, making this embodiment nearly impossible for most human beings on the planet.

We are continually working on embodying the unity template of Spiritual Marriage in No Time, in order to create the foundation for Hieros Gamos which unites the male-female consciousness units, and requires the alien bi-wave systems fail to run on the earth grids in the future Timelines. The NRG system keeps electron distortions feeding the Patriarchal Domination archetypes that are superimposed upon the males and females given power and influence over others, in the socially accepted roles of identity. This results in a bevy of highly destructive mental belief systems and emotional body schisms that split the male and female principle apart from each other, referred to as Gender Splitting. The strategies of splitting the pair bonds is outlined in the Archontic Deception Behavior.

These schisms promote the Predator Mind and anti-human thinking, which is highly dysfunctional to the point it generates genetic damage in the lightbody, especially in the 2nd Chakra and 4th Chakra layer functioning where there is the 2D/4D Split. These archetypes were once creational myths that the souls could play out in the polarity game on earth, but the archetypes were synthesized into AI mind control machinery in order to become a massive source of energy food to be harvested for the controllers, especially with the use of the Victim-Victimizer software. As these archetypes became AI controlled, they were used to gain access to the human energy fields, and control people with Mind Control software, thus the person regressed into aggressive anti-human, robotic and disconnected behavior, losing all feelings of Empathy and spiritual connection. Spiritually abusive behaviors that disconnect people from their Soul Matrix are known as Archontic Deception Behaviors.

Sexual Misery

The name of the game for the NRG is propagating and feeding highly destructive addictions and deviant sexual attitudes and behavior within the global human population. This is a part of propagating the Sexual Misery program along with the Victim-Victimizer. Its first priority is designed to relegate all sexual activity laced with guilt and shame into the lowest forms of human expression and perversion possible. Depending on accepted cultural attitudes it will use the perceptive level of access to serve the current societal paradigm into distortion. (In Muslim countries it can be the legal killing of raped women by being left in the desert to die by their own husband, or the selling of little girls to prostitution in Thailand, Catholic priest pedophilia in the Vatican, Sadistic or masochistic fetishes in Germany. These harvested energies all feed back into the same NRG matrix.)

This NRG matrix starts out looking on the surface like its “harmless” based on open sexual attitudes (What are you, a prude? Are you jealous and possessive? Don’t you know that polyamory is what we were designed for?) It’s designed to suck you into Addiction Webbing and nonstop base instinct desire of the second chakra, so all that is craved is “plugging into” the next “outlet” or in its deeper levels - getting relief from addictive anxiety. The promiscuity design is to crash your human genetic code so you lose your “real” sense of divine human connection, which is the deep desire to be truly intimately connected and experienced as the divinity within. Unity Field intelligence (God force) is created between the male and female principle at highly developed consciousness frequency such as within the union between equals in Spiritual Marriage in No Time or Hieros Gamos. (This is what it is like on advanced planets. This is when unconditional love is shared in a safe emotional haven and the full transparency of trust to create divine union is made possible.) Most of us engaged in the sexual act forget that the human design to Ascend into God Source is a part of the union of equals existing in perfect love. We need to remember this again in order to heal ourselves and return true unity in spiritual marriage to the planet.

In order to separate humans from divine union, the NRG grid promotes disconnection through all means sexual, such as internet porn, the sexualization of inanimate objects and the belief the grass is always greener with another sexual partner. Once a person becomes addicted to the bait of this rapidly descending pathway, the architecture of this control system hooks into all of your lower centers to capture your vital force. When something vampirizes your vital force (sexual chakra) all you instinctively want is to get it back, so you seek the next “seduction” to vampirize someone or something else. Never succeeding in feeling satiated, you become addicted to all things external. The mind becomes fixated on latching into another outlet, sex, food, drugs, clothes, or any object or person. This is the definition of Mind Controllled Addiction. In its advanced stages the fixation becomes obsessive compulsive in order to relieve the discontent to the level of anxiety experienced, courtesy of the NRG grid.

Princess Code

As an example, the Asian grids are feeding “Princess Code” female principle distortions as well as “sexual robot” fantasies. Hello kitty products (princess code) and Anime cartoons (sexual robot) had extensive architecture powering into the NRG as a battery source. This means huge Asian populations are feeding distortions to power this NRG in the same way the reptilians are using, this does not mean these items in itself are “negative”. It means these items are being exploited into some massive deviation that is far from balanced and healthy to the human being who is unaware they are being negatively manipulated through these systems.

Twentieth-century precursors of the “smart city”

“Worthwhile Canadian Initiative.” This has been said to be the most boring headline in the world.

Volume 10/11 Number 1 March 2001

What is Smart about the Smart Communities Movement? Mary Anne Moser Resources and the Environment Program University of Calgary

Introduction A Brief History of the Smart Communities Movement The Rhetorical Resonance of Smart: Thinking Machines Smart Economic Strategies Conclusion References

Introduction The Smart Communities movement is the phenomenon of villages, towns and cities getting almost ubiquitously connected to the Internet, and using the connection to involve citizens in networked activities--ranging from electronically accessed government services, telehealth and distance education to e-commerce.

These initiatives have been undertaken almost without exception as public/private partnerships whose purpose is to create a competitive advantage for regional economies. What distinguishes them from other information-economy strategies is that they depend on the citizens of that community for their success. Thus the public is implicated in a way not normally associated with economic decisions.

It is currently unclear whose interests are served in the Smart Communities movement--whether it is equally smart for the private sector partners, government funders, and members of the communities. Smart Communities initiatives are relatively new, and their impact as yet not well understood or documented.

At this juncture in time, then, it is useful to examine how the word smart may be operating in the new movement. This paper will show how the smart in Smart Communities has roots in various intellectual histories, and how these histories are connected to a pivotal role for the public in the context of Smart Communities.

It will consider the way that the term smart is a political choice of words, and how this word aligns a political wish with the potential of technologies sprung from artificial intelligence research and cybernetics models.

Although the some historical background from the U.S. will be discussed in this study, most of this discussion will focus on the Canadian experience, where Smart Communities is the term most frequently used to describe community network projects. In the United States, the term Community Networks is also widely used, sometimes almost interchangeably with Smart Communities.

However, the political and rhetorical charges of the two terms are substantially different. The term Community Networks emphasizes the grass-roots origins of the Community Networks movement. The term Smart Communities, more commonly used in Canada, has quite different origins and rhetorical force. It is this term that will be the subject of this paper.

To trace the genealogy of the word smart in this label, it is first necessary to describe what Smart Communities are, or at least what the term Smart Communities refers to. Then we can take a step back and look at the cousins of the word smart--intelligence, rationality--to help trace the roots of the term within the information society that has spawned it.

This exploration will be structured around two areas of thought, both of which offer insight into how the word smart could be understood in the Smart Communities movement. The first concerns the history of "thinking" machines, which in this case has stimulated the technological development based on artificial intelligence, and the market for technology products. The second looks at strategies to manage economic growth, which points to the role of technology in economic programs. Together these contribute to an understanding of how the word smart may be loaded in its Smart Communities usage. A Brief History of the Smart Communities Movement

The Smart Communities movement took shape over the 1990s as a strategy to broaden the base of users involved in information technology. It has been driven by two concerns: one is based on the need for skilled workers for an expanding information economy, the other has roots in reviving communities whose economic base has been destabilized by the information economy. Although related, they will be treated here in turn.

The need for skilled workers is a product of the rapid pace of development of the information economy. The knowledge workers required to maintain this economy are in short supply, as the daily headlines about "brain drain" and hiring competition among companies and universities testify.

Much of the strategizing for an information economy has followed a trajectory triggered by the now seminal work of Fritz Machlup, The Production and Distribution of Knowledge in the United States (1962).

Machlup's study was followed fifteen years later by a nine-volume study led by Marc Porat and Michael Rubin for the U.S. Department of Commerce. Around the same time, sociologist Daniel Bell steered the issue into the realm of the social and coined the term "post-industrial society" to describe the new social framework that he saw as fundamentally altered by the centrality of information-related activities (1979).

Since the publication of these widely recognized foundational documents on the information society, over two decades of strategizing have unfolded. Most of these studies concern gaining a foothold or advantage in an information economy:

The accumulation of skills, experience and technical know-how, whether at the level of firms or of countries, takes time and is a process pertinent to long-run economic development. The heritage of technology and human capital can only increase through a snowball effect, through gradual accretion, from the local, national and international environment, to an initial kernel of knowledge (OECD 1992, 17).

The initial emphasis on scientists and engineers as the fuel for the information economy (PITAC 1999) was complemented by an understanding that the learning process is also integral to the uptake of innovation - whether it involves doctors learning telehealth skills, professors learning distance education technology, or citizens learning to access government service online. In addition to a broad base of learners and users, skilled troubleshooters are required.

A subhead for a Computing Canada article reads: "As systems and software become more complex, end users are increasing demands for technical assistance. The software support market hit $22B in '98" (Downey 2000, 14). Smart Communities represent a strategy to attract, engage and train the broad base of users identified as integral to information economy success.

The second motivation for the Smart Communities movement has come in part from the need to revitalize local economies. This revitalization first took the form of industry-driven initiatives for strengthening a region's economic base.

By 1986, the industry equivalent of a "smart community" was well under way in the form of the Teleport, a term coined in 1982 by a joint venture of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey; Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith; and Western Union Telegraph Company (Hanneman 1986, 4).

This joint venture was a combination telecommunications and real estate project that involved the construction of a satellite uplink facility surrounded by an industrial park on Staten Island. It was conceived "from the union of economic necessity and technological innovation," according to the developers (Annunziata and Catlin 1986, xxi).

They needed to "stem the migration of jobs and industry" from the New York area and therefore wanted to rebuild the economy from a technological base, but they were also concerned that the New York region might not be able to capitalize on new telecommunications technologies because its airwaves were congested. The presentation of an information technology solution to an information-age problem is one of the characteristics of the Smart Communities movement.

This first industry initiative also represented a model for the private/public partnerships that were emerging as commercially successful strategies involving information and communications technology.

These early teleports were described as "hubs of the intelligent city" (Hanneman 1986, 10), where intelligence is described as attending to and investing in telecommunications infrastructure in city planning. The wisdom of building a teleport, according to Hanneman, is that it prepares the city for an impending explosion in network traffic resulting from personal computer use and recognizes that there will be competition for network business among a highly educated citizenry that demands access.

In technical terms, the intelligent networks described the systems of computers and networks that managed the flow of information in an industrial park or city. At this time, these telecommunications projects started to differentiate cities based on their level of intelligent infrastructure.

As this differentiation took shape, intelligent cities developed different strategies to expand the use of information infrastructure out from the limited domains of high-tech industrial parks into more broadly based arenas, in particular, into commerce and education. The scope of technology-based economic strategies widened as the consequences of the information economy were felt more widely. Developments started to marry the advanced technology with the interests of civic bodies to restore health to dying cities that were suffering, in part in due to these same early industrial upstarts elsewhere. From this point onwards, the integration of intelligent networking and computing infrastructure became more colloquially described.

In 1992, the OECD identified several cities that it called "learning cities" (Thorne 1998), which were actively involved in building a skilled information economy workforce. One of these was Edmonton, Canada, cited for its coalition of school boards and post-secondary institutions aimed at mutually advancing skills in new technologies. Collaborations aimed at developing community or regional information infrastructure began to emerge in disparate locations. They also began to include organizations with more diverse interests.

Another early example was Blacksburg, Virginia, where an alliance of town officials, the local university, and private industry was exploring the potential for an "electronic village" (International Center for Communications 1997a, 2). The Blacksburg Electronic Village was one of the first communities in North America to install a broadband networking infrastructure, and has been followed by hundreds of community network projects in the U.S.

The inclusion of users in technology implementation marked a shift in strategy from revitalization for purely economic purposes to revitalization for sociopolitical reasons as well. The social needs arose when it became clear that not only were local economies being affected by information technology, the traditional social cohesion of a city appeared to be suffering, rather than flourishing, as technology became more widespread.

Some of these results were documented in 1993, when the International Center for Communications (ICC) in San Diego undertook an inaugural study into the state of the American city. It found that many major American cities were "dying, in large part because cities in themselves were losing their relevance as governing units" (International Center for Communications 1997a, 1).

The study found that telecommunications advances had displaced the geopolitical role of the city as a hub of transportation or production, and had made obsolete many of the advantages of a common physical location. People could shop anywhere, or work anywhere. This affected many parts of a city's make-up and its perceived future well-being:

Government and business leaders are concerned about losing control over their communities' economic destinies, as shifting business and population patterns are eroding their economic base. Economic and social institutions ranging from city hall to local schools are struggling as their traditional practices are proving insufficient to the rapid technological and complex social and economic challenges of the late 20th century (International Center for Communications 1997b, 1).

The answer, suggested the study, "lay in an entirely new form of civic organization" (International Center for Communications1997a, 3). It officially coined the term Smart Communities to describe a particular solution for the problems it found. These Smart Communities would "rely on the power of cooperation, shared resources and shared goals to increase their competitive ability to retain and attract people, businesses and jobs to their region" (1997a, 3).

Since 1993, numerous Smart Community initiatives have developed throughout North America and in other industrialized countries. In the Canadian context, Smart Communities refer not only to self-identified cities or towns that have adopted IT-based economic strategies but also to the Canadian government's Smart Communities campaign launched in 1999, as part of its Connecting Canadians agenda.

This federal Smart Communities project began with a call for proposals in 1999 from communities for projects to "fundamentally transform" the community by using information technology. It selected 12 proposals in the spring of 2000, one in each province and territory, and is investing $5 million in each of what will be Canada's "demonstration Smart Communities" (Industry Canada 1999).

Canada's project incorporates the findings of a 1998 study by the La Jolla Institute on exploiting high technology for knowledge-based economic growth. John Reardon, who supervised the La Jolla study, concluded:

Today, a community's strength is based on knowledge of the greater whole, on what you, me, the scientists, the academics, what we are all doing in the community. That is why a smart city focuses on institutions and alliances ... The strongest cities will be the ones best able to form alliances--to be anchored in several areas, several things they are good at" (Reardon 1999).

This "gestalt" philosophy, which views a balanced organized whole as more than the sum of its parts, is aligned with the inclusiveness required for the use of the word smart in a broadly based public context.

Because today's Smart Community initiatives require not only positive reception from, but also, active involvement of general audiences, the Smart Communities literature also marries the concerns of economists and politicians with motivational studies. The outreach process, for example, is an integral part of Smart Communities planning.

The Smart Communities Implementation Guide published by the International Center for Communications (1997b), advises that outreach be a priority from the first stages, "otherwise the project may be perceived as exclusive and the sense of broad community ownership essential to success and sustainability won't develop" (29). By mixing economic goals with motivational outreach programs, Smart Communities bring private sector concerns with information economy into the public sphere. They do this in two ways. First, they implicate the general population in the economic vitality of an information-age community by presenting reasons that the public should be technology literate. Second, they advance the responsibility of individuals in a geographic region to create the required social and economic alliances for sustainable information-age communities.

When intelligent hubs of infrastructure alone led to the unstable community situations noted above, it became clear a key contributor to sustainability was community involvement. Smart Communities therefore attempt to regain control with a user-involvement approach. When these interests in networking technology shifted from establishing industry advantages to include community balance, the vocabulary about information infrastructure also changed: intelligent shifted to learning, which shifted to smart. Smart communities needed a particular type of buy-in that relies upon a rhetorically charged term. Because of the need to appeal to a broader base of community members, the word smart served the situation better than the more elitist term intelligent. The Rhetorical Resonance of Smart: Thinking Machines

The genealogy of smart technology can be traced back to the computing science sub-discipline of artificial intelligence. Much of the early work on artificial intelligence was inspired by a desire to "create a machine on the model of man [sic], a robot that is to have its childhood, to learn language as a child does, to gain its knowledge of the world by sensing the world through its own organs, and ultimately to contemplate the whole domain of human thought" (Weizenbaum 1976, 203). Decades of debate on the ethics of this possibility have ensued.

Machine intelligence and artificial intelligence are terms used almost interchangeably to describe the higher-level data processing capabilities of computers. IBM's computer Deep Blue, which beat world chess champion Garry Kasparov in 1997, is a good example of what some would call artificial intelligence, although its performance is not touted by IBM as intelligence but "a new genre of computing, one that combines the powerful parallel computers and advanced algorithms of scientific computing with the vast databases typical of business computing to make human decisions" (Schechter 1999, 13).

This new genre of research has given rise to the commercial application of intelligent-acting products and services, that is, smart technologies. Smart technologies do not necessarily embrace the same grand goals of replicating human intelligence, writ large, as does the parent discipline of computing science. Smart technologies, unlike intelligent machines, are pragmatic implementations of technology rather than intellectual pursuits. They are a manifestation of the convergence occurring in information and communications technology, a convergence that is often described as "the currents developments in broadcasting, multimedia, programme-making, virtual reality, entertainment and telecommunications" (Knight and Weedon 1995, 5).

The first smart technologies were fairly simply feedback-response technologies, clever in the sense that they appeared to predict and respond in ways a person might want them to, but technologically a departure from the artificial intelligence research that lived in universities. What distinguishes smart technologies from data-processing computers is that they integrate multimedia input and output devices. They are designed to be machines that are responsive to feedback from users or their environments, by processing input data to trigger an appropriate response.

For example, smart technology might be used to regulate home lighting in response to the traffic patterns and preferences of its inhabitants. A typical example in the medical realm is a technology that reads levels in the blood stream and maintains a desired balance by triggering the release of a needed substance. The body is made up of systems that do this all the time naturally. Smart, in this context, means responding to data in a way that is appropriate for maintaining control of the organism, and involves no intelligence in the mental processes sense. Smart technologies may also be networked so that patterns of interaction with users can be recorded in central databases. This data can then be "mined" to provide information about consumer patterns for marketing or product-development purposes. In this way, smart technologies provide intelligence to technology companies.

This is what is known as "smart technology" in a technical sense. Both the technology and the label itself are offspring of "artificial intelligence" or AI research initiated in university computer science and computer engineering departments. Because of its association with specialist practices--whether science or surveillance--the word intelligence to describe these technologies is limited in its marketplace appeal. In marketing language, the word smart appears. Smart has broader connotations, for smartness includes the notion of being quick-witted, a keen bargainer, well-groomed, fresh and bright in appearance, in good repair, stylish, even severe (Oxford Dictionary 1995).

Smart, therefore, is more user-friendly than the term intelligent, which is limited to having a quick mind, being responsive to feedback, or having data-processing capability. Smart also encompasses characteristics that can be readily learned, whereas intelligence is more limited in this way. This distinction is important because, for a user-oriented movement like Smart Communities, or for a smart technology aimed at consumers, the more inclusive and less intimating term is likely to get wider reception.

In short, the word smart in the realm of technology has quite a different meaning from that suggested by intelligent networks or Smart Communities as described above. Smart technologies refer to computational processes that may or may not involve networks, and have roots in computation rather than networking. So the technology that normally characterizes Smart Communities--which is high-speed network connections--is only tangentially related to any actual implementation of smart technology in the cybernetic, feedback-controlled sense.

However, the meaning of smart in Smart Communities picks up on the commercial successes and public interest in artificially intelligent smart machines. In other words, the network technology characterizing Smart Communities is not artificially intelligent or smart, but the inference of technological cleverness migrates through the affiliation of advanced technology alone. Smart Economic Strategies

James Beniger describes how the regulation of government and industry bureaucracies has been enabled by computer technology. In an information society, as Beniger suggests, "a society's ability to maintain control--at all levels from interpersonal to international relations--will be directly proportional to the development of its information technologies" (1986, 8-9).

Beniger's use of a biological feedback model offers considerable potential for understanding how a user-oriented strategy, such as Smart Communities, could be an effective control response to the negative effects on cities described in the first part of this paper. Although reductionist and rationalist, Beniger's model facilitates an understanding of a system whose goal is the avoidance of chaos. This model also describes a sociopolitical expression of organic control that varies in response to scale, though not to a particularly new crisis.

If the global information economy is viewed as an organic structure, then it follows that local, provincial and national governments might experience a loss of control, since they have traditionally operated in a closed system. The Smart Communities movement plays an interesting role in this context, for it partly incorporates and partly resists the globalization of marketplaces. It therefore highlights the rebalancing that is a part of the Smart Communities strategy.

As mentioned earlier, it is a strategy that both supports an information economy by encouraging trained workers, and tempers a global economy by creating geopolitical economies. On both these counts, the community citizen has been invoked. To understand how the public's role has taken on increased importance in information-age economic strategies, it is useful to follow some of the research studies undertaken to devise strategy for managing politically closed systems in a global information economy.

These studies reveal the sense of urgency pressed upon federal governments for competitive action concerning technologies, and hint at the arrival of the term smart in a community-oriented government program. For example, in 1992 the OECD, whose purpose is to facilitate "a better understanding and mastery of the relationship between technology and economic growth" concluded that technological change, and its associated economic benefits, is "fundamentally a social process" (15). Reports such as this one underscore the role of individuals and cultures of innovation, both for creating the necessary workforce but also for their role in technology implementation. The OECD report acknowledges that technologies may be selected not for their superior qualities or efficiency but may become efficient simply because they are chosen (21). In other words, if everyone uses a certain piece of software, it becomes efficient simply because everyone uses it. It is inefficient to use an incompatible type, whether or not it is a superior product.

In Canada, a 1992 report sponsored by the Economic Council of Canada was undertaken as part of a larger project to understand Canada's competitiveness and trade performance. It says that "Canada's position has been slipping relative to that of its trading partners, and that this jeopardizes future living standards" and concludes that "Canadians have not responded quickly or effectively enough to the challenges that have been taking place in international markets" (McFetridge 1992, vii).

Since then, the Government of Canada and some of the provinces have launched strategies to have Canadians respond more quickly. The federal Smart Communities program of Industry Canada is one of them. Maurice Estabrooks, a senior economist in the Canadian government's Department of Industry in the 1990s, claims that information technology offers "great opportunities for learning, education, entertainment, cultural exchange, world development, and human understanding. These are just some of the potentials of broadband intelligent multimedia telecommunications technology, and this is why governments perceive investments in advanced telecommunications infrastructures to be crucial to economic growth and competitiveness" (1995, 154-55).

Internationally, the United Nations Commission on Science and Technology for Development (UNCSTD) responded to the impact of information and communications technology by focusing in the years 1995 to 1997 on ways it could "close the gap between North and South, between the 'included' and 'excluded,' so that everyone has equitable access to sustainable development and growth" (Howkins and Valanin 1997, xi). By the mid- to late-1990s, a focus on an inclusive user-oriented approach was becoming clear in economic strategies.

American studies, such as the President's Information Technology Advisory Committee report (PITAC 1999) underscore the need to invest in people, most notably researchers, but also highlight an increased need for research into the social and economic implications of information and communications technology. Both of these reports reveal an increasing awareness of the role of human resources in the information economy.

The kinds of reports just described often contain warnings about regional or national economies falling behind, and imply an impending loss of control. For example, the PITAC report concludes that current levels of funding for research are "seriously inadequate. Research programs intended to maintain the flow of new ideas in information technology and to train the next generation of researchers are funding only a small fraction of the research that is needed" and furthermore, that this lack of investment may prevent the research required to "protect us from catastrophic failures of the complex systems that underpin our transportation, defense, business, finance, and healthcare infrastructures" (1).

Such warnings, much like the Smart Communities strategy, suggest that information technology is required to address problems created by the technology and that, without it, chaos could ensue. Smart in this sense is directly linked to the cybernetic meaning of smart as a mechanism for control. The ideology underlying the word smart in the Smart Communities movement, then, also speaks of the "wisdom" or appropriateness of this particular economic strategy for regulating balance in the developing information economy. In particular, the smart of Smart Communities reflects interests in maintaining control of regional economies made volatile by emerging global marketplaces, through engagement of a broader public with technology.

Conclusion

One of the particular characteristics of debates about the merits and problems with information and communication technologies is the high level of uncertainty. The potential or perceived impact of information technology is deeply equivocal. Both the far left and the far right have used the decentralizing effects of information technology in their arguments, but with the goals of achieving different ends (Winner 1986, 85). It is now almost a truism that "ICTs can often produce contradictory results simultaneously: homogeneity and fragmentation, for example, or greater equality and greater inequality" (Howkins and Valinin 1997, 19).

Smart Communities, however, are unequivocally branded as an effort to reduce this uncertainty. Through the choice of the word smart, the movement--whether emerging from grass-roots collaborations or government programs--is positioned to garner widespread public support for the implementation of information technology. At the same time, it implicates this public in a strategy for control of economic forces that is rhetorically affiliated with artificial intelligence, and conceptually a product of the same cybernetic feedback-control model.

Things To Know About Landscaping

Many have heard the term “landscaping” but not everyone fully understands all the details that go behind actually landscaping a Calgary yard.

Often times, the first thing that comes to someone’s head is tree and shrub planting with pretty green grass.

While this is true, Calgary Landscaping is more than just planting a garden bed.

Real landscape architecture is so much more than that.

I always try to stress that it’s not just about building a patio or a deck for someone’s backyard. There is a much deeper meaning to proper exterior design and construction.

Like anything, landscaping in Calgary is a discipline in constant fluctuation, redefining its role with and relationship to similar disciplines of thought.

Over the last few decades, it has become quite apparent that residential landscaping has emerged as a field for enhanced user experiences.

Landscaping ideas in detailed landscape designs have gone further for residential markets than ever before. I mean, really, a putting green, a beach, a kitchen and a fireplace to name a few, in your very backyard? Wow.

Calgary landscaping as a whole has emerged as a reaction to the changing world; and for outdoor living to contribute anything of value to the future of residential inhabitants, it needs to be contextualized within the larger framework of which it is a part of.

In this article, I want to break down, in detail, the different facets of landscaping in Calgary by talking about the 5 Ws: what, who, why, where and when.

By doing this, I will hopefully be able to illustrate the different elements that we as creative landscaper North Brisbane involve ourselves in.

Landscaping is quite simply the manipulation, addition or subtraction of the land to acquire a specific form and function, in terms of outdoor living and space usability.

All of which is often by a commercial or residential landscaping services company.

This can be done through different “types” of landscaping: hardscaping, softscaping and/or a variety of different Outdoor features.

Check out this Pictograph below to get an idea of the different types of landscaping:

Hardscaping includes decks, patios, retaining walls and concrete. Often times, companies in Calgary will make this the focal point of your backyard.

Softscaping includes trees, shrubs, perennials, grasses, sod and groundcover such as bark mulch and/or decorative rock.

Outdoor features are usually the ‘icing on the cake’, and that can include outdoor kitchens, concrete curbing, artificial grass, outdoor water features and/or landscape lighting – all to achieve a particular look and feel for your space.

By manipulating the existing terrain of the land in conjunction with the elements mentioned above, we as Calgary landscaping experts are hoping to achieve the desired look and feel to your front or backyard.

By realizing fully what these features can do for your yard, you have to understand that there is a more complex process occurring in our mind.

There is a growing body of literature that demonstrates the importance of the exterior environment – the landscape – to people’s social and cognitive development.

Interaction with nature is something that is often overlooked in this age of social media, television and of course: the internet.

By investing in the outdoor environment for your yard, you’re investing in yourself, and your family’s well-being. That patio or deck that you are having installed is more than just a place to eat – it’s a place to release the inner tensions and stresses and take in the fresh natural surroundings of this beautiful city we live in, called Calgary, Alberta.

So what is landscaping? The question rather ought to be: what should landscaping be?

And the answer should be a detailed plan and execution of outdoor living spaces and/or elements so to achieve particular environmental, ecological and/or social utopias in the most thoroughly aesthetic way for a given area.

There are many qualified and professional landscaping companies in Calgary that provide their clients with amazing residential landscaping services, but let’s dive deep into answering the question of “what do landscapers do?”

Landscape designers and Calgary landscape contractors are often company owners that either do the job themselves or employ people (whether in-house or through sub-contracting) that have expertise in the different facets of landscaping; such as site grading, hardscape installations, gardening or simply designing – ie. Coming up with awesome ideas.

Landscape designers, in general, have been steadily bringing about new concepts and possibilities for the role of outdoor living environments, where landscape as a ‘visual image’ is substituted by spatial and sequential forms, thus allowing for innovative ways of seeing, describing and experiencing the natural environment.

By doing this, the best landscape designers and contractors are accentuating performance and event over appearance – which in turn, transforms the visual perspective in which it is constructed; ie. Appearance.

It’s a beautiful paradox when landscaping contractors know what they are doing from a construction standpoint but are unable to demonstrate their skill-set in a thought out profound manner.

You will see this in ten-folds when you look at various neighbourhoods in this city.

Why do we need quality landscaping in Calgary?

Landscaping in Calgary is important for two main reasons: aesthetics and functionality.

If you’ve ever been to a yard that has weeds growing everywhere, garbage and debris complied and dead plant material or worn out decks – you know why aesthetics matter.

It’s always a good idea to invest in your residential landscaping for many reasons, the two most being increased property value and the second: built-in first impressions when people approach or pass your home.

More and more today, people are valuing outdoor living in hopes to capture a glimpse of their natural surrounding because by making your backyard aesthetically pleasing, you are enticing yourself to go outside and soak in that natural environment.

Functionality also plays an important role. Usable space becomes the sole purpose of your outdoor experience and enjoyment. After all, what good is a pretty picture from your kitchen window if it’s not giving you a reason to go outside and experience it every day?

This understanding of landscaping as part of a larger, operative system in Calgary is imperative. The concept of landscaping as a process – dynamic and operational (or functional) versus Calgary landscaping as a set of elemental scenes connected together – is why we need more quality landscaping projects in our city.

By understanding the impact of outdoor living, you can gain a sense of why we need quality landscaping in our city.

Where does quality residential landscaping happen?

Landscaping happens everywhere. Look outside.

From a small front yard to a large stadium complex, landscaping in Calgary happens in large commercial settings and in the smallest residential locales.

It is the glue that brings our architectural world together.

It occurs in macro scales of city planning and urbanism to a Calgary resident’s garden bed; therefore, by seeing landscaping theory in action, we are able to pay closer attention to how landscaping companies are connecting us to our homes and more importantly, how they are bringing value to what already exists around us.

One way to know where quality workmanship is occurring is going online and looking at Calgary landscaping company reviews. By looking at company reviews and testimonials, you can gain a strong understanding of client experiences.

Don’t just look for quantitative reviews. Look for qualitative reviews and testimonials – this will tell you which company or contractor is providing an in-depth analysis of landscaping projects.

When to know it’s time to be hiring a landscaper?

If you’ve bought a new home in Calgary, chances are that you are in need of a landscape contractor to come and give you professional advice for space.

If you have an existing home and don’t like what you see when you look at your backyard or front yard, you need to think about investing in improving the yard.

If you can’t go outside to enjoy your yard, or worse, unable to because of land issues such as drainage problems or because of a steep slope; it’s in your best interest to call a qualified landscape designer to come and help you with proposing landscape design ideas for your Calgary yard.

But more than just looking at your yard, look within yourself and at your natural surroundings.

How can you enhance your quality of living when you have an outdoor space filled with potential?

In Calgary, we have to take advantage of the small summer season and really seek to spend that short time outside to reap the benefits Mother Nature provides.

Your project doesn’t have to be an extravagant yard with a hefty price tag. There are some amazing affordable landscaping solutions for front yards and backyards.

In fact, I often maintain to certain clients with certain yards that they don’t need the elements they may think they need, but rather, given the space/scale and the situation for each of my clients; the job often calls for something very simple and subtle – and at rare times: nothing at all.

To get this honest opinion when you know you need work on your property, you have to contact the right company to come and take a look and give you professional advice.

Final thoughts on quality Calgary landscaping

To get the best value for your dollar, you need an artist to design and construct your project – things change on site, its normal – but if you have a knowledgeable landscaper working on your project you know they will make the best decision on site for your yard.

Much of landscape design and landscape construction resides in its claim to dissolve the boundaries between architecture, land formation and the escape from everyday life.

Without this, landscaping companies cannot continue to push boundaries in residential landscaping and innovate creative escapes for its inhabitants that bring peace and tranquillity to their already busy lives.

youtube

Demand perfection from your landscape contractor.

Demand artistic intelligence and careful planning from your landscape designer.

By doing this, you are ensuring that the money you spend on your backyard escape is of immense value; thus reinforcing the fact that your biggest investment – your Calgary home – has deep intrinsic property value.

Calgary landscaping has come a long way and will continue to grow.

Some Emerging Answers For Intelligent Products Of Iso Xp Whey Protein

Some Simple Guidance On Fundamental Criteria For New Zealand Grass Fed Whey Protein Canada

However, it does contain the aforementioned whey protein (non-grass-fed), magnesium oxide, and very small amounts of B vitamins that are essentially useless in the given dose (0.5-1mg). In "other ingredients,” organic cane sugar is the first on the list (meaning there’s a good amount of it), and Stevia appears as well. So exactly how much powdered corn, soy, and canola oil do you want to ingest on a daily basis? All three of these ingredients are part of Soylent Powder . The process of making oil into a powder requires maltodextrin, which is a high-glycemic artificial sweetener typically derived from corn. It is championed for its easy absorbability, but that means it’s going straight into your bloodstream, which may beget a rollercoaster of spiked blood sugar, insulin secretion, stress hormone release, and the eventual crash. As for the rest of its 40 ingredients, Soylent contains several synthetic vitamins, which are essentially watered-down versions of the real thing—only half as active and less absorbable. Also listed in the ingredients are sodium ascorbate and thiamine hydrochloride. Though natural, they are the less expensive forms of vitamins with low bioavailability, meaning that our bodies don’t absorb them very well. Soylent also contains other cheap additives (soluble corn fiber, and mono and diglycerides that may contain trans fats ), as well as 7 grams of added sugar, and soy lecithin, which may be a concern to those worried about food-based estrogens. If the goal is to thrive, it’s safe to say that this drink would not be our first choice. When it comes to Shakeology and Isagenix, many—I think we can hazard to say most—of the folks selling these products do not have a background in nutrition. As is typical with multi-level marketing companies, sellers often have unrelated full-time jobs and use the supplement business as part-time income.

Tips To Establishing Your Personal Fitness Goals!

Increasing your fitness and health is a fantastic goal. It can be intimidating, especially if you are poor shape right now, but fitness is attainable. The ideas and tips in the article below will set you on the road towards achieving your fitness goals. You will feel better about yourself and be healthier. Lifting weights is one way that people try to become fit. You really don't need all that equipment to stay in shape, however. Just doing pushups, handstand pushups, leg raises, squats, bridges and pullups is enough to keep you fit. Get an exercise regimen that works for your body, and it will be easy to stay at it. If you choose something you enjoy, you'll be excited to work out. Doing some simple pushups can be a great way to tone up triceps. But not the standard push-up, if you turn your hands with the fingers facing towards each other, it will target the triceps. Those triceps will melt like butter then harden like stone beneath the stress of these high-quality push-ups. Change up your workout regiment by doing various exercises. This will help avoid routine in your fitness plan and keep you motivated to come back to your workout the next day. Your body also needs variety so that you don't cause a stall in your results due to your body finding the same exercises too easy. Strong thighs are important to prevent knee injuries. Tearing a ligament in back of the kneecap is a sports injury that occurs quite frequently. Exercising both the hamstrings and quads will ensure knee safety. Leg extensions and curls are great exercises to accomplish this. You can use wall sits to build up your leg muscles. The first thing you must do is find a wall with enough room for you to squat against. Stand approximately a foot and a half away from the wall. Lean back with your knees bent until the length of your back meets the wall. Continue lowering yourself toward the ground by bending your knees until you reach a position that mimics the act of sitting in a chair. Hold this position until you cannot stand it anymore. Tons of crunches alone are not going to get you six-pack abs. Your muscles may get stronger, but nothing will really happen with respect to the fat on your stomach. To get yourself a set of washboard abs, you must start eating better while doing resistance and cardio training. Before starting your workout, test the padding thickness of the bench by pressing fingers down into the cushion firmly. Choose a different machine if you can feel the hard wood beneath the cushion. If there is not enough padding and support you could end up with bruises or even worse, you must have the correct support when working out. It's pretty hard to feel good or be as healthy as you should be if you don't take steps to get into shape and then stay fit. This can be a real challenge if it's been a long time since you exercised, but a little help will help you a great deal. Use the tips in this article to work on your fitness level and to achieve your goal of maximum fitness.

Top Insights For 2017 On Effortless Plans Of Canada

Calgary, Halifax, York Region, Ont., and Port City, B.C. approved to join Canadian Premier League Posted: May 06, 2018 10:22 AM MT | Last Updated: May 7 Calgary was among four groups approved for professional club membership by Soccer Canada on Saturday. (Darryl Dyck/Canadian Press) Spruce Meadows will be the home grounds for Calgary's Tier 1 professional soccer club when the Canadian Premier League launches next season, newly appointed team president Ian Allison confirmed Sunday. "We have a number of designs underway," he said. "One of the great things we have that puts us at a bit of an advantage over some of our colleagues is that we have a great infrastructure at Spruce Meadows that also has, if you will, federation approved facilities — a different federation albeit — with grass rings and drainage and all those types of things so there are a number of things that are going to be unveiled in the next couple of weeks." Calgary was one of four groups approved for professional club membership by Soccer Canada at its annual general meeting in Yellowknife, paving the way for them to join the CPL. MORE ALBERTA NEWS | What matters most to Albertans: Poll results set the stage for 2019 election Clubs from Halifax, Port City, B.C., and York Region, Ont., also got the seal of approval. Port City is not an actual city in B.C., but is thought to represent an as yet unnamed city in the Lower Mainland, though no official announcement has been made. The CPL was approved for league membership with Soccer Canada last year, along with clubs in Hamilton and Winnipeg. Ian Allison was named president of Spruce Meadows Sports and Entertainment, the ownership group behind Calgary's Tier 1 professional soccer team. (ROLEX/YouTube) CPL is set to debut as a professional men's soccer league in the spring of 2019, and will serve as a Tier 1 league. FIFA, the sport's world governing body, still has to approve the league and its clubs. Recognition from Canada's national association was a necessary step before that could happen. Spruce Meadows Sports and Entertainment will be the ownership group behind the Calgary team. Allison said players will come from all over the world, "but the majority of them on the field of play will be Canadian." Known as one of the world's premier equestrian facilities since it opened in the 1970s, Allison said making the jump into soccer isn't that much of a stretch for Spruce Meadows. "It's truly an international game, the most international game," he said.
